Lauren Hedman

No parent wants to feel helpless when it comes to their child’s well-being. When kids start showing signs of distress, like emotional outbursts, pulling away from friends, falling behind in school, or just not acting like themselves, it can feel overwhelming.

You’ve probably already tried different things: maybe talked to teachers or searched online for parenting articles, but nothing seems to be helping. And deep down, you may be feeling guilty, frustrated, or just unsure of what to do next.

I’m Lauren Hedman, a child therapist intern at Kid Matters Counseling. I know how heavy that worry can feel.
